auto merge of #19094 : alexcrichton/rust/rm-std-local-data, r=aturon

This commit removes the `std::local_data` module in favor of a new `std::thread_local`
module providing thread local storage. The module provides two variants of TLS:
one which owns its contents and one which is based on scoped references. Each
implementation has pros and cons listed in the documentation.

Both flavors have accessors through a function called `with` which yield a
reference to a closure provided. Both flavors also panic if a reference cannot
be yielded and provide a function to test whether an access would panic or not.
This is an implementation of [RFC 461][rfc] and full details can be found in
that RFC.

This is a breaking change due to the removal of the `std::local_data` module.
All users can migrate to the new tls system like so:

    thread_local!(static FOO: Rc<RefCell<Option<T>>> = Rc::new(RefCell::new(None)))

The old `local_data` module inherently contained the `Rc<RefCell<Option<T>>>` as
an implementation detail which must now be explicitly stated by users.

+//! OS-based thread local storage
+//!
+//! This module provides an implementation of OS-based thread local storage,
+//! using the native OS-provided facilities (think `TlsAlloc` or
+//! `pthread_setspecific`). The interface of this differs from the other types
+//! of thread-local-storage provided in this crate in that OS-based TLS can only
+//! get/set pointers,
+//!
+//! This module also provides two flavors of TLS. One is intended for static
+//! initialization, and does not contain a `Drop` implementation to deallocate
+//! the OS-TLS key. The other is a type which does implement `Drop` and hence
+//! has a safe interface.
+//!
+//! # Usage
+//!
+//! This module should likely not be used directly unless other primitives are
+//! being built on. types such as `thread_local::scoped::Key` are likely much
+//! more useful in practice than this OS-based version which likely requires
+//! unsafe code to interoperate with.
+//!
+//! # Example
+//!
+//! Using a dynamically allocated TLS key. Note that this key can be shared
+//! among many threads via an `Arc`.
+//!
+//! ```rust,ignore
+//! let key = Key::new(None);
+//! assert!(key.get().is_null());
+//! key.set(1 as *mut u8);
+//! assert!(!key.get().is_null());
+//!
+//! drop(key); // deallocate this TLS slot.
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Sometimes a statically allocated key is either required or easier to work
+//! with, however.
+//!
+//! ```rust,ignore
+//! static KEY: StaticKey = INIT;
+//!
+//! unsafe {
+//!     assert!(KEY.get().is_null());
+//!     KEY.set(1 as *mut u8);
+//! }
+//! ```

+// TLS, Windows does not provide an API to provide a destructor for a TLS
+// variable. This ends up being pretty crucial to this implementation, so we
+// need a way around this.
+//
+// The solution here ended up being a little obscure, but fear not, the
+// internet has informed me [1][2] that this solution is not unique (no way
+// I could have thought of it as well!). The key idea is to insert some hook
+// somewhere to run arbitrary code on thread termination. With this in place
+// we'll be able to run anything we like, including all TLS destructors!
+//
+// To accomplish this feat, we perform a number of tasks, all contained
+// within this module:
+//
+// * All TLS destructors are tracked by *us*, not the windows runtime. This
+//   means that we have a global list of destructors for each TLS key that
+//   we know about.
+// * When a TLS key is destroyed, we're sure to remove it from the dtor list
+//   if it's in there.
+// * When a thread exits, we run over the entire list and run dtors for all
+//   non-null keys. This attempts to match Unix semantics in this regard.
+//
+// This ends up having the overhead of using a global list, having some
+// locks here and there, and in general just adding some more code bloat. We
+// attempt to optimize runtime by forgetting keys that don't have
+// destructors, but this only gets us so far.
+//

+// Where the Magic (TM) Happens
+//
+// If you're looking at this code, and wondering "what is this doing?",
+// you're not alone! I'll try to break this down step by step:
+//
+// # What's up with CRT$XLB?
+//
+// For anything about TLS destructors to work on Windows, we have to be able
+// to run *something* when a thread exits. To do so, we place a very special
+// static in a very special location. If this is encoded in just the right
+// way, the kernel's loader is apparently nice enough to run some function
+// of ours whenever a thread exits! How nice of the kernel!
+//
+// Lots of detailed information can be found in source [1] above, but the
+// gist of it is that this is leveraging a feature of Microsoft's PE format
+// (executable format) which is not actually used by any compilers today.
+// This apparently translates to any callbacks in the ".CRT$XLB" section
+// being run on certain events.
+//
+// So after all that, we use the compiler's #[link_section] feature to place
+// a callback pointer into the magic section so it ends up being called.
+//
+// # What's up with this callback?
+//
+// The callback specified receives a number of parameters from... someone!
+// (the kernel? the runtime? I'm not qute sure!) There are a few events that
+// this gets invoked for, but we're currentl only interested on when a
+// thread or a process "detaches" (exits). The process part happens for the
+// last thread and the thread part happens for any normal thread.
+//
+// # Ok, what's up with running all these destructors?
+//
+// This will likely need to be improved over time, but this function
+// attempts a "poor man's" destructor callback system. To do this we clone a
+// local copy of the dtor list to start out with. This is our fudgy attempt
+// to not hold the lock while destructors run and not worry about the list
+// changing while we're looking at it.
+//
+// Once we've got a list of what to run, we iterate over all keys, check
+// their values, and then run destructors if the values turn out to be non
+// null (setting them to null just beforehand). We do this a few times in a
+// loop to basically match Unix semantics. If we don't reach a fixed point
+// after a short while then we just inevitably leak something most likely.
+//
+// # The article mentions crazy stuff about "/INCLUDE"?
+//
+// It sure does! This seems to work for now, so maybe we'll just run into
+// that if we start linking with msvc?

+//! Thread local storage
+//!
+//! This module provides an implementation of thread local storage for Rust
+//! programs. Thread local storage is a method of storing data into a global
+//! variable which each thread in the program will have its own copy of.
+//! Threads do not share this data, so accesses do not need to be synchronized.
+//!
+//! At a high level, this module provides two variants of storage:
+//!
+//! * Owning thread local storage. This is a type of thread local key which
+//!   owns the value that it contains, and will destroy the value when the
+//!   thread exits. This variant is created with the `thread_local!` macro and
+//!   can contain any value which is `'static` (no borrowed pointers.
+//!
+//! * Scoped thread local storage. This type of key is used to store a reference
+//!   to a value into local storage temporarily for the scope of a function
+//!   call. There are no restrictions on what types of values can be placed
+//!   into this key.
+//!
+//! Both forms of thread local storage provide an accessor function, `with`,
+//! which will yield a shared reference to the value to the specified
+//! closure. Thread local keys only allow shared access to values as there is no
+//! way to guarantee uniqueness if a mutable borrow was allowed. Most values
+//! will want to make use of some form of **interior mutability** through the
+//! `Cell` or `RefCell` types.

+//! Scoped thread-local storage
+//!
+//! This module provides the ability to generate *scoped* thread-local
+//! variables. In this sense, scoped indicates that thread local storage
+//! actually stores a reference to a value, and this reference is only placed
+//! in storage for a scoped amount of time.
+//!
+//! There are no restrictions on what types can be placed into a scoped
+//! variable, but all scoped variables are initialized to the equivalent of
+//! null. Scoped thread local stor is useful when a value is present for a known
+//! period of time and it is not required to relinquish ownership of the
+//! contents.
+//!
+//! # Example
+//!
+//! ```
+//! scoped_thread_local!(static FOO: uint)
+//!
+//! // Initially each scoped slot is empty.
+//! assert!(!FOO.is_set());
+//!
+//! // When inserting a value, the value is only in place for the duration
+//! // of the closure specified.
+//! FOO.set(&1, || {
+//!     FOO.with(|slot| {
+//!         assert_eq!(*slot, 1);
+//!     });
+//! });
+//! ```
